Genie Bag with two sketches combined.

Tomorrow I wont be around till late as have to take my eldest son Kieran to see a specialist for either a suspected hernia or appendix problems, so not much crafting from me. as you all know by now I do love a challenge, and I do love to combine them, so up above you can see three challenges combined,

I followed the Genie Bag on http://sasprojecttuesday.blogspot.com/

and used the sketches from http://cutie-sunday.blogspot.com and http://sketchsaturday.blogspot.com

I used funky fairy papers - please see link on my side bar,

pennyblack stamps, which I embossed and watercoloured,

added ribbons and bows, then stuck them to the bag, punched two holes to put the finishing ribbon through.

Sweet and Yummy

For this challenge, I couldnt resist doing another one of my hanging boxes or ornaments,
I stamped and embossed it, then coloured it on all four side with sakura pens, then I added some lovely chocolate buttons in a cello bag tied the gold ribbon and thats it, a lovely little treat,
I have done this for the challenge over at http://craftycreationschallenges.blogspot.com
I normally do this sort of thing for birthdays, easter, christmas, thank you gifts etc etc

Dovecote Card/gift/keepsake

Today I have been happily playing and making this dovecote, complete with roses, doves, fairy (charm) and a butterfly,

Will make a box for this as well like I did the tractor earlier this week,

I am entering this for two challenges,

1) Fairy/Butterfly challenge over at http://dannisdreamscrafts.blogspot.com/2009/04/flutter-by-wednesday-54.html

2) Shaped cards over at http://thesecretcraftersaturdaychallenge.blogspot.com/2009/04/challenge-29.html

I had cut out about a third of the pieces yesterday before my headache had set in, and the rest took me nearly all of today, till just before I posted this.

The only thing I cheated on was using double sided tape instead of wet glue, as I was to impatient for it to dry, so that means it wasnt really a cheat, doesnt it, lol

Here at last is the piccys of my knitted mouse and elephant

Here at last is the piccys of the knitted mouse carrying her christmas pudding on a plate,
